1900. Extracts from the letters of Captain H.L. Herndon of the 21st
U.S. Infantry, on duty in the Philippine Islands, and Lieutenant
Lawrence Gill, A.D.C. to the Military Governor of Puerto Rico. With
a Postscript by J. Sherman, Private, Co. D, 21st Infantry. From the
Editor's Preface: As I read and read again the following
correspondence between two inconspicuous actors in some of the
stirring events that have marked the closing year, my impression
that these letters constitute a document of history almost
indispensable for the understanding of the new era, which began
with the Treaty of Paris, grew into a settled conviction. Strong in
this belief I spared no effort, and have at last been successful in
overcoming the natural reluctance of those to whom the letters were
addressed, to seeing words, which were written for the information
and consolation of a narrow circle of family and friends, laid bare
to the colder scrutiny of the greater public.
